Why it was refused

  1. The proposed building is not considered as agricultural related works under Class 18(1), Part 6 Agricultural Development of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Scotland) Order 1992 (as amended) due to the application site being out with any parcels of agricultural land shown within an active IACS map. Accordingly, the proposal does not meet the minimum requirements for permitted development under Class 18, and therefore, Prior Approval is refused. A full planning application or revised prior notification may be submitted once the necessary consents are in place.

From the council's decision notice.
